Re: [Dev-C++] Memory Leak Checking

[Josh M. <mrl...@gm...>]

If you don't insist on using that specific monitor, then Fluid
Studio's memory manager is an excellent, free, and small libary that's
worked wonders for me.  No changes required, just use normal
allocation techniques for C/C++ source code.

From the website:

Memory Manager (a.k.a. "MMGR")

MMGR is an industrial-strength memory manager for almost any project.

Not only will MMGR probably point out some bugs you never knew you
had, but it is also a great development tool. Among other standard
tracking tools (overruns/underruns, deallocation mismatches, etc.),
MMGR also provides a rich featureset of developer tools. For example,
it allows you to set a breakpoint on an arbitrary allocation, generate
a snapshot report of memory currently in use, etc. You can even ask
MMGR to track how much of your allocated RAM is actually in use
(nothing worse than allocating 64MB of memory just to find that you
only needed 2K. :)
